The dual Sd card slots allow for automatic switching from one card to another, as well as simultaneous recording to both. The camera can output up to 1920 x 1080p 10-bit 4:2:2 video at 59.94fos via its mini-HDMI output. On the audio side, the XA50 features up to four channels of LPCM audio with manual/automatic recording levels, two XLR inputs with phantom power and a 3.5mm stereo mini input.

1.0-Type CMOS Sensor

The camera has a large CMOS sensor to give beautiful Bokeh with high sensitivity and low noise. The camera also benefits from enhanced Full HD image quality with Over Sampling HD processing, whilst the Wide DR setting allows you a wide dynamic range to be captured.

High Quality 4K 15x Zoom Lens

The camera allows you to optimise the quality of your images with an ultra-wide 25.5mm 4K 15x optical zoom with Super HD lens elements to minimise chromatic aberrations. There is an advanced 5-axis image stabilisation to cope with filming on the move or when shooting handheld.

Fast and Precise Dual Pixel CMOS AF

This camera incorporates Dual Pixel CMOS AF for fast and accurate autofocusing in approximately 80% (vertically and horizontally) of the sensor. Face detection AF and Touch tracking operation enables seamless focus control for intuitive operation. Also, a Dual Pixel Focus Guide provides a graphical interface to aid manual focusing.
